If your house heats up to 30 C on the inside when it's 35 C outside, take heart. There are several realtively sim- ple things you can do to help ease the level of humidity and heat in your home, transforming it from an oven into the haven it's meant to be. Start by closing your cur- tains and any other window coverings during the daytime. A good deal of heat buildup results from continuous sunshine pour- ing in through uncovered windows. You may also want to consider getting heavier drapes with in- sulated linings that help reflect the heat. Awnings can also be in- stalled over your outside windows to cut down on the penetration of sunlight. Bring in the Cool Windows should be open- ed early in the morning to let in the cooler air, but shut by mid-morning once the outside temperature starts to climb. When the temperature starts to dip again in the evening, open the windows and let in the cooler air. Fans are also handy at any time of the day or mgnt to circulate air throughout your home. It's also a good idea to leave the doors bet- ween adjoining rooms open to keep air moving throughout your home. If humidity is a real pro- blem in your home, you may want to purchase a dehumidifier. These por- table units -- which come in a variety of sizes suitable for most homes -- remove moisture by temporarily cooling the air as it passes through the machine. Moisture from the air is then condensed into a con- tainer at the back of the unit, which must be emp- tied when full. Most dehumidifiers will shut on and off automatical- ly in accordance with humidity levels in the air. Cut Down on Appliance Use During times of peak heat intensity, the use of lights and appliances should be . kept at a minimum. Try to do washing, drying and ironing either in the morn- ing or evening when the out- side temperature is generally lower. Also try to avoid using the stove during the daytime as much as possible.
